"Luo Shuai", the Qing army's attack had just been repulsed, and the old man who was full of fireworks found Luo Rucai, and shouted with a crying voice as soon as he met: "You can't fight like this anymore, we don't have many seeds for the fifth battalion of the left side, if they are all lost in this hidden mountain, what can you expect to live in the future?" ”

Wu Sangui commanded hundreds of thousands of troops to march eastward, Zheng Zhilong ran like a gust of wind, and now there are tens of thousands of horses left in the Qianshan area, trapped in the lonely Qianshan defense line. In a few days, although they repelled more than ten onslaughts of the Qing army, their own casualties were also countless.

Luo Rucai didn't speak, and looked at the eastern sky with a pair of eyes in a daze. In fact, I couldn't see anything, and even the sky was tightly blocked by gunsmoke.

In the past few days, Wu Sangui has attacked regardless of the cost, what is the purpose, Luo Rucai, who has been rolling on the battlefield for half his life, knows very well in his heart that his intention is to completely annihilate the main force of the Zheng family, so that Jiangnan can be easily in his hands.

Luo Rucai is just a general, and naturally has no sense of belonging to the Zheng family, and he has no heart to be a substitute for his Zheng family. But the person behind Luo Rucai sent several letters in a row, asking Luo Rucai's Fifth Battalion to hold on to Qianshan for more than ten days. In this way, Luo Rucai could only grit his teeth and defend the hidden mountain.

Luo Rucai didn't speak, but Ji Si, the military advisor on the side, could only explain: "Ma Shuai, Luo Shuai is willing to risk the lives of his subordinates, but now it is really a helpless move!" Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong used to be majestic, but now one is dead, and the other is overwhelmed by Hong Chengchou. Over the years, we have lived in Yinghuo Mountain, if it weren't for Shandong's help. How can we survive to this day? If the general trend is three points today, only Shandong seems to be safer. Luo Shuai, this is also a way out for our brothers! ”

Ji Si's words made Ma Shouying suddenly silent. Luo Rucai's idea is absolutely right, compared with the behemoths of Zhu Ping'an, Zheng Zhilong, and Dolgon, the fifth battalion of the left is really too insignificant, and he wants to survive in the cracks of these big people. You can only see the timing and a little luck, but the necessary effort is essential.

Ma Shouying stomped his foot fiercely, "Don't say anything, Lao Tzu will go to the front line to supervise the battle, there are still four days before the ten-day period, and if you say anything, you have to get through these four days!" ”

Ma Shouying left without looking back, Ji Si looked at the battle in front of him worriedly, and his heart was also up and down. "Handsome! Shandong will not use us as a shield. Deliberately consuming Wu Sangui's troops, right? ”

Luo Rucai withdrew his eyes at this time, leaned on a giant tree beside him tiredly, and smiled bitterly, "You ask me, who will I ask!" Let's eat other people's and use other people's, let us vote for Zheng Zhilong, and we will do what we say, and now this world is no longer the scene where we wander around. If we don't cling to a big tree, we don't even have a place to stay! ”

Ji Si thinks so.

Distance. The Qing army's golden drum was great, and the soldiers like ant colonies began to attack the front line of the buried mountain again.

……

Penglai, the station of Shandong Water Division. The old wharf a few years ago has long been renewed, and with the water city and water village built by the sailors, Penglai's coastal waters have long been lined with ships.

Tong Wanjun was commanded by the sailors to occasionally catch a cold last month, thinking it was a minor illness. But I didn't expect it to be tossed for nearly a month, and it was only slightly better. Counting, Tong Wanjun is already sixty years old, and after this illness, the whole person is no longer as heroic as before. Not to mention losing weight, now even if you stand outside for a long time, you have to breathe for a long time.

But today, Tong Wanjun insisted on coming to the wharf of the military port. On the cold winter sea, the wind was cold, and Tong Wanjun's red cloak was blown high, but his body was still as straight as a javelin.

After more than three years of development, the Shandong Navy Division has grown from more than 500 dilapidated ships of various kinds in the early days to more than 1,500 warships today. Three years was too short for the sailors, but after absorbing the main ships of the Zheng Jun's sailors, the strength of the Shandong sailors was also increasing day by day.

The number of capital ships that imitate the Dutch three-masted gunship and have been modified has reached 100, and the Da Ming Bao ship of the command ship level now has three, although it is still far from the scale of Chengzu, but there is no problem in the East China Sea.

Looking at these giants lying on the sea, Tong Wanjun only felt that his whole body was comfortable, and it seemed that in an instant, the pain was far away.

In the distance, the command ship named "Chengfeng", which is also the largest treasure ship in the Shandong Naval Division, slowly sailed into the harbor. During the Zhengde period, Liu Daxia, the secretary of the Ministry of War, destroyed the drawings of the treasure ship, hoping to cut off the possibility of maritime trade and shipping in the Ming Dynasty. However, the folk shipbuilders have passed down the skills of building treasure ships from generation to generation. When Shandong established the Denglai Shipyard, it found many craftsmen who inherited the construction technology of treasure ships, and thus made the treasure ships see the light of day.

A sampan rode the wind and waves, and came to the shore in the blink of an eye, and Shi Lang, Liu Guoxuan and Shi Xian, who were dressed in strong suits, jumped ashore vigorously.

"Governor!" The three of them saw Tong Wanjun standing on the shore at a glance, and couldn't help but be taken aback, Tong Wanjun had been recuperating for more than a month, and he didn't want to appear in the military port today.

Shi Lang took a few steps forward, took the big coat from Liu Guoxuan's hand, and put it on Tong Wanjun's body without saying anything, "It's windy on the beach, and the governor's body has just improved, why did he come here?" ”

Tong Wanjun smiled and patted the back of Shi Lang's hand, "What is my old bone, but it's you, because of my illness, but I put all the burden on you, a fellow acquaintance." After half a month of practicing at sea day and night, the whole person has been cleared a lot! ”

Shi Xian, who was on the side, hurriedly said: "The governor's worries are not necessary, as long as my eldest brother arrives on the ship, he will not take it to heart even if there is a big matter." No matter how hard he works, he is so happy! ”

Tong Wanjun looked at the swarthy three people lovingly, and was very relieved in his heart. After returning to the military port, he instructed his entourage to bring the ginger soup that had been prepared to ward off the cold, and watched the three of them drink a big bowl each, and then stopped.

Shi Lang wiped his mouth with his cuffs casually, but suddenly thought of something, "Dudu, isn't the prince going to use troops against the south?" ”

This sentence really made Liu Guoxuan and Shi Xian almost jump up, "Are you going to use soldiers?" Damn, these days have suffocated us, seeing Brother Tong galloping across Liaodong, we are even drooling! ”

Shi Lang was more steady, and after asking the question, he couldn't help but continue: "If you want to use troops against the south, you will fight with Wu Sangui's soldiers and horses, they are all land divisions, and water divisions can be ignored." We are useless, if the prince orders us to go south, then there is only one possibility, and that is against the Zheng family in Fujian! ”

Shi Lang hesitated for a moment, "The prince will not be Zheng Zhilong who asked me to wait for the defeat of Chi to return to Fujian!" ”

As soon as this name was mentioned, Shi Xian suddenly became angry, "Zheng Zhilong and I have a grudge against killing my father, eldest brother, how can I rescue him, the enemy who killed my father!" ”

Tong Wanjun's eyes widened, "Bold, now I am talking about the military order and the prince's decree, where is your turn to pick the fat and the thin." Have you forgotten all the admonitions of the martial arts? We soldiers have always taken obedience to orders as their duty! Do you still need the old man to teach you the truth of military orders like a mountain? Go out and take twenty sticks for yourself! ”

Shi Xian had to argue a few more sentences, but Shi Lang didn't say a word, Liu Guoxuan saw that the momentum was not right, and hurriedly dragged Shi Xian out, and after a while, there was a sound of military sticks hitting the flesh in the courtyard.

Shi Lang was unmoved, just looked at Tong Wanjun quietly, which made Tong Wanjun nod, "Very good, I always thought that you would still indulge in hatred, so I was very worried about this use of soldiers, but now it seems that my worries are a little redundant!" ”

"Is it really to rescue Fujian?" Shi Lang asked.

Tong Wanjun nodded, "Wang Yejun ordered the Shandong Sailor to go south." His Majesty and a group of civil and military personnel have been coerced by Zheng Zhilong to go to Fujian, and Jiangnan is in danger. The Governor of Jianghuai Road and Huang Degong of Luzhou will gallop to the aid of Nanjing, the main force of our army is currently in Jiangbei, and we have to face the elite of the Eight Banners of the Qing Army, and it is not advisable to divide the troops to rescue. Therefore, the prince means that you will lead the army to Fujian and Guangdong to support! ”

"That's all?"

"That's all!" Tong Wanjun replied in the affirmative, but the excitement in his eyes was even stronger.

Shi Lang nodded and hugged his fists, "Don't worry, Shi Lang will definitely live up to the trust of the prince and the teacher!" ”

"You don't have anything to ask?" A smile rippled at the corner of Tong Wanjun's mouth.

Shi Lang thought about it, but still shook his head.

At this time, Tong Wanjun took out a letterhead from his arms and handed it to Shi Lang. "Everything the prince has to say is in this letter! See for yourself! ”

Shi Lang took it with both hands, opened it carefully, and two lines of big characters on the white letter paper appeared in front of him.

"I'll leave it to you what I'm not going to do conveniently! Just do it! I've got you covered! ”

After reading a few short sentences, Shi Lang, who was calm as usual just now, suddenly burst into tears.

Tong Wanjun said slowly: "When you were still in the Zheng family, the prince wanted to get you to Shandong. If it weren't for the prince, you and Shi Xian might not still be able to stand here alive. The prince's expectations for you, you know it in your heart, and you don't need to talk about it anymore. The old man just wants to say eight words to you: think of the source of drinking water, and focus on the overall situation! ”

Shi Lang got up suddenly and knelt down in front of Tong Wanjun, "Master, please relax, Shi Lang will definitely live up to the trust of you and the prince!" (To be continued......)
